Running Dead 5K

 Hi again everyone...

I just came across a fun-looking race as an alternative to more traditional road races, the Running Dead 5K.

The event, held on Saturday, October 25, is run on the same acreage as the Kansas City Renaissance Festival, meaning a lot of it will be on essentially the dirt paths and trails through the festival grounds.

There is no real race, according to the website; rather, it is more of a light-hearted event where runners or walkers navigate the course at their leisure, encountering Zombie Attack Zones along the way.  Apparently you can choose to be a runner in the event or a zombie that will chase the other participants, which adds a unique twist when compared to your standard 5K.

Given participants are encouraged to wear costumes it could be a great family event.
